The Effect Of Bit Depth On High Temperature Digital Image Correlation Measurements, Steven Robert Jarrett
The Effect Of Bit Depth On High Temperature Digital Image Correlation Measurements, Steven Robert Jarrett

Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is a camera-based method of measuring mechanical displacement and strain which is commonly used in high-temperature experiments due to its ability to take contactless measurements. High-temperature DIC is challenging due to light emitted from the sample which can saturate the camera sensor. Blue-DIC and UV-DIC have been developed to minimize this effect, but the maximum sample temperature range of DIC remains a function of the camera and camera settings. Bit depth, also referred to as color depth or number of bits, is an important camera setting which affects the dynamic range of an image, but which …
